I'm extremely curious to see all the different answers. I've been thinking about this quite often. Is there a right time to do this?

    I get up, use the bathroom then weigh myself.

    I only weigh once a week on Friday mornings.

    I usually weigh in every Wednesday after I finally get out of bed, and use the bathroom. A lot of the times I wait until I feel like my body is fully awake before stepping on the scale..which could be 20-30 minutes. I don't know this is is good or not. I started weighing in only once a month now.

    I agree I logg my monthly results but do have occasional moments where I step on the scale out of curiosity lol.

    I like to get an early morning work out in (that helps shed the bodily fluids that may have built up due to sodium and such). After showering and drying my hair, I go up to the gym to weigh once a week. I'm thinking about buying a scale, but I'm afraid I'd be tempted to weigh daily. I don't think that would be good for my peace of mind. I know weight fluctuates during the week. I wouldn't want the depression of that pound going up and down.

    Once a week, after I pee but before I get dressed.

    I'll go nuts if I weigh daily, I just can't handle the day to day ups and downs :)

    After using the toilet and before eating. Weigh naked and you will get the most accurate number.

    This is something I have a problem with. I have a scale, don't get me wrong, I love it, but I seem to be stepping on it ALL the time! I'm going to have a friend hide it for me until September 1st. I don't want to step on it anymore. It shouldn't be about the number. It should be how I feel. I get extremely depressed if it goes up the next day, even though I know it's physically impossible for this to happen. You're smart for doing this.

    I only have scales at the gym, I've been weighing randomly when ever I remember, I usually do it just before I leave to go home. Usually in between 11.30am and 12.30pm
